My Son is 13 and my daughter is 7. If they are applying for an international school, will previous school references be requested or required? thx

They will be requested but how much weight is attached to them depends on the length or otherwise of the new school's waiting list.

I have often wondered if there is an assessment team for the "samples" of work requested of preschoolers (some schools really do ask for this).

Hmm this one colors outside the lines.. and wait trees aren't red! Put this one in the rejection tray  Cheesy

Quite agree - references can only say so much about your child Smiley
Appreciate your comments.
